I for one do not know what all this hoopla is about with HDTV. We had that when I was a kid, it was called 3D. And you got to wear neat paper glasses with one green lens and one red lens for your viewing pleasure. I am not going to pay top dollar for something that has been around for so long. And besides, every time I hear it advertised I think they are saying "subscribe to High Deaf". Like I would pay for more hearing problems! Sheesh!
After work today I called my hours in to the work line as I always do. There is always a nice message from the management, and usually an update on the office proceedings or an announcement about the quarterly meetings, etc;
Today, the message said, "Caregivers! In order to reward you and thank you for being such valuable employees, we are holding a barbecue in your honor. Please R.S.V.P. and be sure and tell us what dish you are bringing to the potluck."
I just fell out laughing because that is so disgusting! That's like saying, "I'm taking you out for your birthday, don't forget your checkbook!"

the teapot is behind you.
Now tell me about hundreds of things.

Mission Statement
There is an old saying: there are no ugly babies and no ugly quilts. I'd like to add to that falsehood by saying I think there are no ugly china patterns, teapots, aprons or vintage fabrics. I love all those old things, even when they are less than palatable to the 'modern' eye.
We seem to put such a priority on teaching our girl children to be competitive, strong, and really good soccer players. I think this is wonderful, but I wish we spent just as much time passing down the things of our Mother's and Grandmothers: Needlework, Baking, the feeling of satisfaction from something as simple as seeing a line of sheets hanging taut on the clothesline, snapping in the breeze, and the joy of creating something--anything--from scratch.
In this new world we have tossed off anything we wore last season, drove last year, or sat on for the last 4 years. Everything has to be new and more expensive than the one before.
Along with all this greedy desire to consume and to always have what's new and in fashion, we seem to have tossed out those old things like Manners, Femininity and Housewifely Pursuits. Sew on a button or just throw the shirt away? Mend a torn hem or just toss out the skirt?
Miss Pink Ponsonby shakes her head at all this shallow consumption, dons her apron, tidies her doilies and serves tea in vintage cups with homemade goodies on antique plates.
